Join a gathering of African American voices in horticulture for a Symposium highlighting our gardening Legacy.

Teri will contribute to discussing Beyond Borders: The Ethono-Botanical and Horticultural Influence of Africans, African Americans, and Immigrants on the American Landscape.  The weekend starts with a screening of Family Tree on Friday night. Saturday will feature three sessions – The Wisdom of Trees: Urban Forestry and Black Land Ownership in the Subaltern South, Beyond Borders: The Ethno-Botanical and Horticultural Influence of African Americans, African Americans and Immigrants on the American Landscape, and Centering African American Narrative Stories in Contemporary Environmental Literature and Media.

This is going to be a weekend of conversation and information to enlighten and inspire.
